from composer: “13 notes: The most alien tuning of all: so dissonant that no three-note combination sounds like a major or minor triad. Yet even this tuning contains a strange mode best described as “sub-minor.“ The first four bars of the Etude are an arrangement of this mode into consecutive thirds — a motif that recurs later in two transposed variations. The rest of the piece is comprised of chromatic resolutions of complex altered chords.“ - Easley Blackwood from 12 Microtonal Etudes, Op. 28
